Default Web client and IMAP

Please Login to Remove!

I currently check my desktop email using Outlook connecting to an IMAP server. I am considering getting a Blackberry. I know that the Blackberry uses a push technology and it cannot accesss an IMAP server without a third party client.

It is my understanding that the Blackberry Web Client can check an IMAP account and then push the email to the Blackberry device. I am fine with that. My question is, can the Web Client synchronize between the Blackberry and the IMAP account? For instance, if I delete an email on the Blackberry, will it be deleted from my IMAP account?

If not, it seems like my only choice is to go with a hosted email service for the Blackberry or run Exchange and use the desktop redirector. Does this sound right?

Thanks,
Craig
